Mice found living in Kmart boot display, get adopted as pets

BISMARCK, N.D. - A pair of North Dakota brothers are enjoying a family of mice their mother let them bring home from their local Kmart Monday. But the mice didn't come from the pet section, they were found in a pair of winter boots.

Talon and Deakon Riederer along with their mom, Shasta, were not sure at first what the critters were that came rolling out of the new winter boot.

"'Mom,' he goes, 'Mom, look.' I honestly thought it was Vienna Sausages rolling around the floor, until they started moving, but then we heard them squeaking," Shasta told WDAY.

They were not sausages, but a family of mice. First they saw two, then counted a total of seven.
